  • Very Helpful

    Hey Thanks a lot, although I had some issues with some minor things, I managed to change the code a bit. I had the issue, that the import method created false folders because the parameter was not correct, and I had some path issues in the navigator section, because I used your plugin on a windows based OS with Laragon as the env. But I found some quick hacks :) Really needed your solution! Thank you so much! Before that, I tried a different plugin and it didn't work well.

    A hard upload limit per file is set by the hosting provider on the webserver. I needed to upload some video files bigger than 128MB. Uploading through FTP was possible but then there is no pointer to the uploaded file. Thank you, this has been a great help to me.

  • Really good

    This extension saved me hours of work and headaches. It allowed me to upload media via FTP to a folder from an earlier date, and all the links were updated with the new media. This kind of task is difficult to do, and plugins that claim to be able to do it don't work; the URLs are only modified virtually.
